Unremarkable poll about automated traffic enforcement finds support. No surprise since most believe it's not meant for them. https://www.burnabynow.com/unswerving-support-for-automated-speed-enforcement-in-b-c-poll-finds-1.24160079?fbclid=IwAR2cynFcN0I9qbBxSTjay3SL9I7yArnCve6Fx_KOt3EMdccdaRmuYF80SBc
Hit the nail on the head, as they say Ian. Safety isn’t the issue with the Vision Zero crowd; eliminating the private automobile is.
I can’t count the number of cyclists I encounter at night without lighting or reflective clothing and no helmet riding on a major street instead of a bike path. Cycle advocates never address such issues which is why their safety propaganda rings hollow. The recent sustainability report you referred to just adds a veneer of sophistication to their campaign and plays well in the media
This croup of narrow minded zealots aren’t going to go away, and motorists should be grateful that SENSE exists to provide rationality to this almost one sided debate.
